Here's the challenge...

Website A Hotlinks an image from Website B.

ie: this code is on website A... < img src="http://websiteb.com/images/jennifer_lopez_nude.jpg" >

Website B's bandwidht goes through the roof.

So the challenge is... How does Webmaster B, start redirecting ALL of website A's traffic. So that any surfer who simply loads the page on Website A, immediately gets redirected to Website B's Sponsor.

I don't think it can be done, with a simple "img" tag. Since the browser is expecting an image, anything else it gets will result in a broken image.
